How to prove that intermittent energy beats dispatchable energy

In this topsy-turvy world, everything is in flux. Sense becomes nonsense, and vice versa. Facts become denialist talking points, and the hysterical fever dreams of alarmists becomes fact. Eventually, somebody had to realise that a bicycle is, indeed, a viable transportation method for a gurnard.

Thus we reach the stage in the slow collapse of civilisation when we realise, after all, that renewable generators produce more useful energy than fossil fuels.

Struggling to come up with advantages for renewables, I find two, which are in effect two sides of the same coin: they use no fuel, and emit no carbon dioxide when in use. That’s it.
